    Abstract: A method and apparatus for combining retransmitted hybrid automatic repeat-request (HARQ) messages divided into coding blocks in an orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM)/orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA) receiver are provided. According to such a coding-block-based HARQ combining scheme, the quality of each coding block may be compared to a threshold to determine whether the decoded bits or the HARQ combined signal should be saved for each coding block for subsequent HARQ iterations. In addition to reducing the required HARQ buffer size while preserving the combining gain, coding-block-based HARQ combining may also provide fast decoding and reduced power consumption when compared to conventional HARQ combining techniques.

    Abstract: An embodiment of the invention is a technique for preamble detection and synchronization. A symbol correlation of a sequence of symbols is computed i n a correlation window using one of a time-domain correlation and a frequenc y-domain correlation. The sequence of symbols is received in an orthogonal f requency division multiple access (OFDMA) wireless communication. A symbol i s verified from the symbol correlation. The symbol is one of a preamble symb ol and a data symbol.

    Abstract: In accordance with a detection method in a wireless communication system, an initial hypothesis for a starting position of a desired signal within a received wireless communication signal may be determined. The desired signal may have a conjugate symmetric property. At least one correlation value may be determined based on the initial hypothesis. The at least one correlation value may indicate the extent to which at least one sample sequence selected from the received signal has the conjugate symmetric property.
